Topic: They have turned Brooke into an idiot

Additional Comments: I always thought Julia Barr was a good actress, but never cared for her much since she tried to pimp Laura on Leo. Now she is back, something doesn't seem right. The writers seem to be taking her in another direction. Why is she all over Adam like that??? Seems kinda strange. Annie needs to put her in her place JMO

This doesn't seem unlike Brooke at all. She's always been a touchy, feely person. I think she knows Annie is using Adam and just doesn't care what Annie thinks. I don't care what Annie thinks either. LOL

Brooke was 'turned into an idiot', or at least dumbed down, yrs before JB left the show. This isn't a new turn of events. Because it isn't, I'm still surprised that JB agreed to return!

Over the yrs I loved Brooke. I still do, but both the character & the actress (not to mention the fans) deserve SO much better!

I remember for the last 10 years or so, Brooke acting like Adam wasn't good enough to wipe her feet on.

Even with that I could by her now wanting to support, comfort and encourage him during this difficult time.

What I find hard to fathom is Brooke's total disregard for propriety...physically hanging on to and stroking and hugging a woman's husband right in front of her and others. 

Annie is whacksville sure, but any woman would have problems with Brooke's behavior and having her plop down in her own to boot!

  • What I find hard to fathom is Brooke's total disregard for propriety...physically hanging on to and stroking and hugging a woman's husband right in front of her and others - that's what bothers me, too. Even after Scot talked with her she still said Adam asked her to move in. So? How would she feel if he asked another woman (one he was involved with prior) to move in when she was Mrs. Chandler? eom/WE
  • Or Maria moving in when she was Mrs Grey...oh wait...that didn't last but an hour! eom/ky

    I'm just wondering if Adam has something up his sleeve with Brooke. Perhaps he still doesn't trust Annie and Scott? The "old" Adam would bide his time, plot, and set the wheels in motion to make his kill. Perhaps HE contacted Brooke to come back to help? Just a thought...esp. with the spoilers about how he's to exit the show... :-D

  • I said basically the same thing in Goldie's topic. It makes little sense unless they have a plan. eom/WE

    Looks like more of us need a nap. This writing is making me pine for Pratt!

    Brooke, and remember I love Brooke, is not her old self. She's been possessed by the CoMM (Committee of Mediocre Monkeys).

    This ''group'' of writers cannot be allowed to trash our story this way. It has to stop.--Quinn the getting ready for bed.

    Brooke is being rude and bitchy, too bad she doesn't remember how it felt when Dixie moved in her house and then got pregnant by Adam. I don't remember her and Adam having this close relationship, she is his ex wife and Brooke has lost men many times to other women, twice to Dixie. What is wrong with her?

  • Erica would say nothing's wrong with Brooke, that this is exactly what you should expect from her! ;-)
  • One of the big reasons I didn't care for Dixie was that she slept with Adam in his own home while he was married to Brooke. I think of this when I see how Brooke is behaving now. She has no consideration for the wife. I don't care how many horrible stories she's heard about Annie, her (Brooke's) behavior is horrible. MM
  • Repeating what Dixie did to her would not be a stretch for Brooke. She who made a career out of grieving for her dead daughter chose to let another Mother to continue to believe her daughter to be lost forever. eom/ky
